That's no secret.
With one round remaining the Two Blues flyer has ran in for 15 tries, to be equal second alongside Hamilton centre Fiso Vasegote on the NHRU try-scorers list, one behind teammate Nimi Qio.
The last four games have produced eight five-pointers, including four against Singleton and two each against University and Southern Beaches.
In some cases, the opposition haven't laid a hand on him.
"It's not just his pace," Wanderers coach Dan Beckett said. "It's his feet and awareness. He is getting off his wing and he had a couple of assists where he has gone looking for the ball. From one set play he scored under the posts untouched. That was him being able to control his feet and time his run. Only talented players can do that."
Marsh's spike in form - and confidence - is in contrast to an underwhelming 2018 where at times he appeared lost rotating between wing, fullback an outside centre.
The 25-year-old is three short of the 18 tries - in 17 games - he scored in 2017.
It's not just down Marsh's right side, where the Two Blues have caused problems.
Teeenage sensation Liam Dalibozek has scored seven tries in three games on the left wing, highlighted by five against Southern Beaches.
A part of the NSW Gen Blue squad, he will be on rep duties and unavailable for the preliminary final and grand final if the Two Blues get there.
"It's a week to week thing for him," Beckett said. "He is available for Hamilton, which is good."
"He is enjoying his rugby and is definitely learning off some quality players around him. It is a step up again this week against the premiers."
